Since posting, I was checking out a MOLLE ILBE also. Again, any input would help. Getting ready for work, so I might not get time to reply until later.

Good ruck but the ALICE is still excellent and a heck of a lot cheaper, for those on a shoe string.

Alice is a lot cheaper.  But if you go that route change to quick disconnect buckles.  It'll make your life a lot easier.

Thanks to all! GC, were you talking about the MOLLE II or the ILBE? I'm guessing the MOLLE II. It's issue, right? It has an external frame, the ILBE is internal. I'll have to research them some more.

Just found this picture of the ILBE and saw the price. Note to self, scratch ILBE off of list.

P.S. I just saw some ILBEs on EBAY for a lot less.
